Instagram adds Double tap to switch camera in Video and Swipe to Zoom

Instagram in its latest update rolling out a few new features in its app namely Swipe to Zoom and Double Tab to switch the camera while shooting a video. More importantly, both these features are borrowed from Snapchat.

Swipe to Zoom feature works similarly the Snapchat. When you are recording Video, you have to press and hold the button to record a video so the simple act of having the button pressed and simply sliding your finger up and down to zoom makes it quite a clever feature. In Double Tap to Switch the camera, you have to open the video viewfinder and then double tap on the viewfinder to switch between the rear camera feed and front camera feed.
